The NCAA continues its ethnic cleansing act.......

on the Fighting Sioux.........

The Spirit Lake tribe Tuesday sued the NCAA for blocking its attempt to let the University of North Dakota use the sports nickname Fighting Sioux.

Tribal attorney Reed Soderstrom said the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court challenges the NCAA's policy banning the use of Native American names and imagery by collegiate athletic teams.

He said the suit against the National Collegiate Athletic Association was brought on behalf of more than 1,004 members of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe "in direct response to their attempt to take away and prevent the North Dakota Sioux Indians from giving their name forever to the University of North Dakota" despite a tribal vote in 2009 and a "sacred and religious spiritual ceremony" by tribal leaders in 1969 that granted "perpetual use" of the name to the school.

Isn't it funny how a bunch of white bread, politically correct, liberal do gooders know so much. They even know when Sioux tribesman should be offended when a university takes on their name. Of course, they're also so smart that they know that Sioux in North Dakota should be offended but Seminoles in Florida or Illini in Illinois should not.
